“Go Back To College”
September 9th, 2013
The heat under Greg Schiano has reached unprecedented levels.
Surely the most powerful and influential blow torch belongs to the dean of Tampa Bay sports radio, Steve Duemig, of WDAE-AM 620. Duemig delivered a scathing indictment of Schiano’s coaching during his opening monologue moments ago.
Duemig has seen and heard enough from the head coach. “This guy will not make it through the season, nor should he. Go back to college,” Duemig said of Schiano. (You can hear the entire audio below.)
Duemig’s take is significant. He’s got a top-rated show. Team Glazer said when it fired Chucky that fan opinion weighed heavily in that surprise move.
Of course, Schiano can extinguish the fire under him in six days, if he can lead the Bucs to victory over the Saints.
September 9th, 2013 at 3:46 pm
He hated Gruden, but loved Rah cuz he would come on his stupid show. Consider the source people.

Welcome to VEGAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! …. YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
September 9th, 2013 at 3:48 pm
lil pup is a sensationalist. He’ll say anything to stir things up. Haven’t listened to his shlep in years.
September 9th, 2013 at 3:49 pm
The more bad publicity … less attendance … welcome to VEGAS!!! BABY!!!
September 9th, 2013 at 3:52 pm
We’ll be looking at college all season for our new starting QB in 2014, assuming Glennon isn’t the guy. But Glennon starts by week 5, book it. An 0-4 or 1-3 team headed to 6-10 or 7-9 might as well go with the guy who will be here next year (Glennon) and not the Browns or Jags 2014 starting QB (Freeman).
September 9th, 2013 at 3:53 pm
I quit listening when he would incessantly brag about beating a DUI.
Rest of comment deleted. Not adding to the discussion or necessarily accurate. –Joe

C’mon over and check it out Joel, will even include in the package The Presidential Suite at Hugh Hefner Sky Villa Palms Resort.
September 9th, 2013 at 3:55 pm
He hasn’t liked Schiano since he replaced his buddy Raheem. Big Dog has been irrelevant since Gruden left. His show has gotten really old too. I couldn’t care less about hearing about over unders and horse racing.
September 9th, 2013 at 3:57 pm
It’s a great take by Duemig and he’s got a good show. Only guy with balls in town.
September 9th, 2013 at 3:59 pm
He speaks the truth the micro managing hurts this team. Anything less than 7 wins and he should be fired!!!
September 9th, 2013 at 4:00 pm
Sorry Joe, Duemeg is a fellow JF5 jock sniffer like yourself. Now it’s a Schiano conspiracy to set him up to fail. Sorry, that’s just wack job ludicrous.
Schiano and his staff did a miserable job yesterday as did many of the players too. Team fail from Dom on down.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:02 pm
^^^Now a man of reason ^^^I totally agree
September 9th, 2013 at 4:03 pm
The sky is falling! What a douchebag. AM radio, where your grandpa’s grandpa goes to get his sport news.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:03 pm
Team fail from JOEL on down!!
Welcome to VEGAS!!!!
September 9th, 2013 at 4:09 pm
I agree with the micromanaging bit. But I think he’s being a little too harsh. I do think Schiano gets his fingers into too much. Let the coaches and coordinators do their job. Especially if you see ill effects from you sticking your nose somewhere it isn’t supposed to be. I also agree with the BS playcalling enroute to the field goal. Not one shot at the endzone? Cmon now.
That being said, Schiano seems like a smart guy, and one who isn’t afraid to take blame when it’s lying at his feet. I think we get this corrected and move on. As long as the negative media blitz doesn’t start effecting the locker room.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:09 pm
Is it me or do the Monday reactions after a loss get worse every year?
Folks, it was bad. Heinous. Unacceptable. Unforgivable almost. But as pointed out earlier, a win on Sunday and the Bucs would technically be in 1st place in the division.
We lost a road game to an out of conference opponent. Granted we are way better than them, but if it comes down to it (BIG IF RIGHT NOW) that loss wont mean much.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:12 pm
I don’t think Schiano loses his job before the end of the season, unless there is a monumental collapse, a la Raheem Morris. Schiano is in year two of a (I believe) a 5 year contract. The Glazers won’t like the idea of paying the remainder of his deal and then hiring another coach. Unless, Schiano gets a job somewhere else and/or the fan base explodes like Mt. Vesuvius.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:14 pm
@Dave — I listen to 620 on my phone, and it’s on at my office on FM. Sports radio isn’t for old farts. I’m 29.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:15 pm
Much respect to Deumig for calling it like it is. I was almost certain he’d back up Schiano with his show on right after Big Dogs.
Schiano is setting up Freeman for failure. He wants to clean house of all of Raheems guys, and I wouldnt be surprised if he will eventually want to take Dominik’s position and play HC & GM like his good buddy Belicheat.
PJ Fleck mentioned how he controlled everything at Rutgers from coaching to MERCHANDISING??
He wants to buy himself another few years, and Freeman is his sacrificial lamb. He started the QB controversy, and you Mike Glennon Mobsters are doing his bidding. You fake a$$ inbred fans are pathetic.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:18 pm
Seriously, who the hell thinks we’re going to win Sunday? Drew Brees is somewhere close to 100 times as good a QB as Geno. The Saints D held Atlanta’s offense, much better than ours, to 17 points. Its going to take a gargantuan effort to win. Freeman cannot be anything other than outstanding Sunday to have a chance. Anyone have much faith in that?
September 9th, 2013 at 4:19 pm
To completely extinguish the fire we will have to win out going I to the bye
September 9th, 2013 at 4:20 pm
So why did Penn throw a fit on the sidelines? No speculations spoken as truths please
September 9th, 2013 at 4:22 pm
“To completely extinguish the fire we will have to win out going I to the bye”
thats not in Schiano’s best intrest. he needs his own hand-picked project QB to buy himself a couple more years of coaching.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:23 pm
I think Penn was voicing his displeasure with the JFro experiment.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:26 pm
Oh god here we go with another conspiracy theory! FML… No offense to Joe, but outside of the Wendesday afternoon segments with JBF and #55; who the hell listens to this awful (for numerous reasons) show?
I will say this; we saw some very questionable coaching/game management yesterday and Schiano & Co. better get that bullspit (you see what I did there) out of their system now or we could be looking at an 0-6 football team to start 2013.
Go Bucs!!!
September 9th, 2013 at 4:27 pm
The Vegas Troll is ruining the site Joe. Pretty sure his “VEGAS BABY” messages on every post is ridiculous
September 9th, 2013 at 4:29 pm
Duemig hates Schiano’s discipline but loved Rah’s country club. Great results Rah produced big dog whatever your show stinks and your rude and arrogant to boot. Get him off the air, I never listen to his one sided takes any longer. One day I heard an 80 year old man call the show to say he liked both the Dodgers and Rays and was having the time of his life with both teams doing well. Duemig lit into the poor guy who maybe had a few more years of life left because he liked two teams being from Cal but living in Tampa now. He was relentlessly berating this guy who did nothing but call into his show. The guy is a complete ass and karma will get him one day. What goes around comes around.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:30 pm
Since my last comment got trashed, I’ll say it again… much respect to Deumig. I’ve been critical of him in the past, but I have agreed with everything he’s said so far.
Schiano DOES NOT want Freeman to succeed. It’s in Schiano’s personal interest to bring in his own hand-picked project QB to buy him a few more years. He wants HIS fingerprint on this team.
And the way he controlled everything from coaching to MERCHANDISING at Rutgers, I wouldnt be surprised if Schiano tries to move in on Dominiks spot next year. So he can play HC & GM like his good buddy Belicheat.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:33 pm
OVERREACTION MONDAY… Sure we looked unprepared but so did the almighty giants…so did the well coached steelers. It’s one week who knew a headset was gonna break inside your own 15 yard line on the road in New York the first game of the year. You guys need to shut up, 15 more weeks. I wish they moved the team to LA just so I don’t have to hear idiots like duemig. Let the man coach he will have us in the playoffs this year. we will be 3-1 heading into the bye week. The jets have a good front 7 and a pro bowl corner…You can’t expect us to just go blow them out because their offense is suspect.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:35 pm
Joe, thank the lord Duemigs take is not “fan reaction”. So he would rather have the great leader Raheem Morris back??? Are you freakin kidding me? The worst coach the Bucs ever had is Duemigs guy because they were buddies. The guy is so one sided its not close. To even suggest Schiano is setting up Freeman to fail is a joke. Freeman does that all on his own. Any QB who cannot hit a running back out of the backfield deserves to fail.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:38 pm
As far as us winning Sunday I guess we have a chance. Freeman (aka Jekyl and Heyde) will take the field and who knows which qb we will see. The one who cost us the playoffs last year or the one who made Rah look like a genius in 2010. The fact that anyone made Rah look like a genius is pretty impressive by the way.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:43 pm
Listening to “the Big Dog” right now. Did he really just put out speculation that Schiano might be intentionally sabotaging the game so that we can put Glennon in? Wow, what an idiot.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:44 pm
I’ve never seen such ridiculous reactions to a Bucs loss in my life. The first game of the season and everyone has the rest of the year scripted. Isn’t that kind of what we did to the Jets? Everyone assumed they would be a horrible team when in fact they turned out to be pretty good defensively and not very good offensively, but good enough to win with the penalties we had on defense to give them the game.
Personally, take away the penalties and I love our defense. Good enough to play with our division opponents. Offensively…our O-line needs to seriously step up. Freeman needs to stop making critical mistakes and our play calling needs serious help.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:47 pm
I quit listening to Duemig several years ago when he would lambast callers who said RAH RAH was a bad coach. Consider the source he misses his boy RAH RAH and doesn’t like a coach who looks at him for the jerk he is.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:49 pm
Sorry, Duemig….we ain’t taking back Raheem. That clown was a joke.
We’ll take back Gruden though. I think at this point most Bucs fans would love to have mediocrity back.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:49 pm
Sorry, Steve….we ain’t taking back Raheem. That clown was a joke.
We’ll take back Gruden though. I think at this point most Bucs fans would love to have mediocrity back.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:50 pm
“Is it me or do the Monday reactions after a loss get worse every year?”
Expectations were high, and again somebody blew off a well coached NFL team(Jets), as a 1st game beat-down by the mighty bucs.
Shiano failed in this game, and is ultimately responsible, beyond Dominick.
Just wait until the expectations are high for a playoff win, now those losses hurt….See Jon QB Guruden years.
Win next week, all forgotten.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:51 pm
High praise.
Seriously though, people are over reacting quite a bit. (Myself included.) Predicting Schiano is gone before the end of the season is really extreme at this point. Lets see how/if Schiano recovers against the Saints.
September 9th, 2013 at 4:52 pm
lightningbuc,
Or maybe he is the only one the team that likes Freeman and was mad that him and his buddies keep making Freeman look bad.
Or maybe someone stuck an ice cube down the back of his jersey and his undershirt was tucked in. That sucks when that happens.
Or maybe Davin Joseph stepped on the back of his shoe and gave him a “flat tire.” That’s annoying when you’re wearing cleats
September 9th, 2013 at 4:56 pm
The problem with Schiano is not that the Bucs lost to the Jets in game 1 it’s the product he put on the field. IF the Bucs had won the game it still would have been a horrendous game effort. The team gets worse every time it takes the field. No successful organization stays in business doing that.
Schiano’s not just playing with the fans emotions he’s playing with the Glazer’s money. How long they’re going to let him tinker with the team, destroy the fan base, and empty the stadium is up to them. I suspect it won’t be long. They seem to be pretty shrewd businessmen.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:12 pm
As it’s been said already, but deserves to be reinforced: Consider the source. Duemig is awful and unfortunately he has enough sheeple to stay on the radio.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:12 pm
Sounds like Duemig got his monologue from your site, Joe.
I guess he was done making online bets and moseyed over here.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:13 pm
I can’t see us firing Schiano in the middle of the season no matter what. What would be the point? Hell, if we start out 0-7, then we might as well let it play out and maybe get a top draft pick. I’m pretty sure we aren’t going to get Vince Lombardi mid season. The worst part is, we are talking about getting rid of our coach after only one game. Normally, I would chastise anyone for such a theory, but after what I saw yesterday (and what I’ve read elsewhere), I can’t really do that. The performance was that bad. How can you have 8 months to prepare for a game, and then get 2 delay of game penalties, a false start, and a timeout on the very first possession???!!! I’ve never seen that at any level in my 30 years of watching football. I don’t think Freeman is probably the answer at QB, but that’s not on him (at least not entirely). I’ve never been more embarrassed by our teams performance than I was yesterday. Schiano ought to be ashamed, and it bothers me that he doesn’t just come out and say it. He’s not taking any accountability for his dreadful performance. I wonder how that sits in a locker room with players who have been preached “accountability” since the day Schiano was hired.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:21 pm
I never thought I would hear myself say this, but well said Mr. Duemig.
Now, a simple statement that you were totally wrong about Jon Gruden and I might actually turn your radio show on.
Actually, a lot of people in this town need to admit that, but I suspect it requires just a litte too much man up.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:21 pm
@Hawaiian Buc
Hit the nail on the head. Schiano is taking zero responsibility for anything that went wrong yesterday.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:26 pm
@Hawaiian Buc
“Normally, I would chastise anyone for such a theory, but after what I saw yesterday (and what I’ve read elsewhere), I can’t really do that.”
I agree with everything you said. But this the most
September 9th, 2013 at 5:27 pm
I’m sorry to Raheem defense he had NO money to spend and was hired simply to fill in while the Bucs transitioned. Not saying he was a good coach but Shiano was handed everything Raheem had NOthing and we had 1 winning season even under those conditions
September 9th, 2013 at 5:27 pm
People it’s game ONE!!! How many games are in a season??
This guy Steve is a BUM!! Full of spit? Joe, why did you link to this bums??
September 9th, 2013 at 5:33 pm
Mikey you’re right but that’s a game we were not suppose to lose. If we can’t beat the Jets and lose to the saints we are in Big Trouble and people deserve to get fired. Y’all want Josh gone? Except what comes with it New Everything GM, Coaches and Josh.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:38 pm
Brilliance by Duemig. Well done.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:39 pm
Where was this “heat” on that tard Morris? We wasted 3 seasons with that mental midget they didn’t talk about firing him until middle of Yr 3.
Dammit i wanted Jeff Fisher.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:41 pm
Steve, he was staring down v-jacks all day. he’s not going to be open 20+ targets.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:42 pm
When 158 yards go to one WR out of 201 yds total.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:43 pm
@Adam,
The heat wasn’t on Morris in year 2 because we went 10-6 in year 2. Not sure where you were. Why would we fire him after that, not to mention he came in second in the coach of the year award. Year 1 was a tank job, year 2 was a success, and we even started out year 3 on a good note. As soon as the team quit, he caught heat, and was fired. Get your facts straight, because by not, it just makes you look like a complete fool.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:45 pm
Listen, Steve is failing to recognize, WRs could have a good game with a terrible QB. Jets left Jackson WIDE OPEN. No one should be able to miss him.
There are too many excuses surrounding Freeman. No, we didn’t lose the game soley on Freeman, but he shouldnt be excused from it either.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:47 pm
Jacko, we def shouldn’t have lost this game but this is the NFL you know how the saying goes, “Any given Sunday” any team can win. Josh didn’t have much help, Martin was running into a wall each time he touched the ball (I dont think i saw one play-action), they had no legit TE and that tree guy dropped two passes in the 4th. Josh could of played better but the play calling on offense could of been better too. If we put on a show this week, this will all be forgotten.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:51 pm
So Greg Schiano preaches accountability. Jeff Demps chose track over football in the summer. Now he;’s allowed a roster spot as of today?
September 9th, 2013 at 5:51 pm
I agree 100% no play action (which is when Josh is best) I just dot get that and why the F doesn’t josh ever FN run? That kills me he is not the best pocket passer and doesn’t make linebackers respect his run he makes it hard on himself.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:52 pm
We need more hate spewed towards Ogletree. That is one guy not getting enough credit for being a turd. Cut this clown. Suit up Warren Sapp. At least he caught the ball when thrown to.
September 9th, 2013 at 5:55 pm
Lol @chef you’re right ogletree is a Capital BUM get him the F out of here. I’ll take underwood over him, hell TO, Lloyd disgusted
September 9th, 2013 at 6:02 pm
Agreed. Ogletree was a liability out there.
September 9th, 2013 at 6:02 pm
SD is a senile old bully with a microphone. In the same show he kept insisting we had two Ogletrees on the roster.
He is a rank Freeman apologist. Last year one caller pointed out that you can see what direction Freeman turns his shoulders when he takes the snap and know the ball won’t go to the other side. SD went all nuts on the guy who was right.
I do, however, agree that Schiano’s pre-season plan was ill-advised. This team is not good enough to turn on with a switch. I for one had a rough time discerning the “real” offense from the pre-season “vanilla” offense.
September 9th, 2013 at 6:08 pm
I’ll take Chucky back tomorrow. I wouldn’t give up on Schiano otherwise, but this rests solely in the Head Coach’s lap. It’s his system, his micromanaging and his baby. Sullivan sucked yesterday but worse is that they lost control of the offense, players, emotions and play in general.
Joe says if the Bucs beat the Saints that all isn’t lost. I was optimistic because of the team talent, but I have to question the coaching after that debacle. Josh is just too laid back and lacks intensity but that can be coached. It isn’t happening, and I can’t believe NOW after this crap out that we will beat the Saints or the Pats.
This team is looking at 0-3 fast, but Gruden could win a Super Bowl with this team as it is. Sad but true.
September 9th, 2013 at 6:09 pm
I said it yesturday and I will today. Put JZ back where he belongs and Larsen at center. Also FIND a receiver that does not have hands of stone. While your at it, someone pickup a large stick smack the coach and maybe he may wake up and figure out how to use one of our backs as a FB!
September 9th, 2013 at 6:09 pm
Yep. He fails to point out Vincent Jackson was wide open to the point, not even Tim Tebow coulld miss him lol.
Freeman has no field vision what so ever. If Josh is so good, why is he putting up performances only better than the likes of Blaine Gabbert, Terrell Pryor, and Christian Pondner? There are 32 QBs in the league. He bested 3 of them? lol
September 9th, 2013 at 6:10 pm
haha zuttah and larsen are terrible.
September 9th, 2013 at 6:18 pm
Also coach plan B. Give little Josh an arm band with some plays. Tell him “if your speaker goes out, you may run one of these plays”. One would have thought we fixed this problem after the last screw up.
September 9th, 2013 at 6:25 pm
I totally agree everybody has blamed freeman, in my opinion i don’t no how freeman can feel confident when his coach has no faith in him and has never vouched for him never praised him for anything not even last year. Like joes previous article about not going for the knockout with a little over a minute left we were in the red zone 3rd and 3 and Schiano turns to running martin who couldn’t get anything going last night because of how awful the o-line was. Freeman with help from V-Jax drove the offense down the field. It was 3rd and 3 why not throw a slant to v-Jax go for a td for the win. Instead kick he field goal and the rest is history and now we are basically the laughing stock of the league. He clearly had a poorly thought out game plan. And i know a lot of people on this site hate freeman and would love to see Glennon in there i have a really bad feeling that Schiano will put his guy glennon in and that will be a nightmare because Glennon is nowhere near ready. Schiano should take most of the blame from that game.
September 9th, 2013 at 6:27 pm
Seems they did did well last year. The complaints were on defense and Freemans melt down. Remember. All we heard was if not for the melt down and the defensive backfield we would have been in the playoffs. SOOOOOO how bad are they??????
September 9th, 2013 at 6:30 pm
Duemig is as big a blowhard as you’ll find on the radio. Whatever that guy says, do the opposite.
September 9th, 2013 at 6:35 pm
They need to put page in the slot receiver position.
September 9th, 2013 at 6:36 pm
Dumbig the little Chihuahua strikes again. Since he has no credibility I won’t even consider what he says. Not for a second. Moving on.
September 9th, 2013 at 6:36 pm
When you spends million of dollars to obtain all pro football players,why not invest in Pro Coaches and a G.M. that has been in the championship arena. Someone need to put pressure on this coach and tell him you do not cut all of depth because it will come back. Their was several outstanding coaches that wanted this job. three of them have super bowl rings. May be Mr. GLAZER will start searching after this week,because this coach like all the other college coach’s that came before him will fail,look at the numbers. He has no ideal how to prepare a N.F.L. team.
September 9th, 2013 at 6:42 pm
What’s really interesting is that Duemig always rants about “research” and looking at Pro Football Focus so you know where players really graded out. Well guess who got the worst grade…
http://www.620wdae.com/pages/big_dog.html
September 9th, 2013 at 6:47 pm
After what I saw in that game from that line yesturday the way it was set up. Last year Martin had over 1000 yds and holes to run . Freeman over 4000 yds passing. We were better off with the make shift line. Just hope Freeman does not melt down again.
September 9th, 2013 at 6:49 pm
Duemig is right about The product Shiano put on the field yesterday. Mini camps and preseason for the last 8 months and your team comes out flat again. There is something about Josh Freeman not being able to run a conventional offense. Put him in hurry up mode or 2 minute drill and he gets it but in a normal paced down offense he is slow to get to the line of scrimmage and doesn’t have the accuracy in the short passing game. The Bucs have invested 4 years in Freeman and the jury is out, he can only succeed when he ad libs. Geno Smith took off and ran when he needed to While Josh just stayed frozen. Shiano will be a loser trying to run the Giants offense without a Manning to run it. Freeman needs to become the mobile QB he used to be. He isn’t Rogers, Bree’s or Manning. He needs to be coached to be an RG3-Kapernick-Russell Wilson type QB, the guy can be athletic but the coaching has made him into a robot.
September 9th, 2013 at 6:53 pm
The next up and coming HC is on the Buc’s staff right now!!
Bryan Cox, use him or lose him!!
Replay the game to see who was in LVD’s face after the boneheaded play. It was Bryan Cox and he was not chewing him out, he was doing what a Head Coach should do. He was getting LaVonte to own it but never let it happen again.
No one commands more respect in that locker room than Coach Cox.

September 9th, 2013 at 7:01 pm
Not sure where he said bring RA RA back? Believe he said he was at least prepared in week 1. Zero excuse for not winning yesterday IMO. They did everything they could to do so though. 2-2 going into the bye week and ill forget about it.
September 9th, 2013 at 7:08 pm
I thought it was all about the players? Remember the Raheem Morris era,when all “Big Dog” would do is blame the players?
September 9th, 2013 at 7:58 pm
25,000 tickets remain for Sunday, thank god for blackouts and I can watch good teams
September 9th, 2013 at 8:00 pm
The defense looked really good, 5 sacks!? If not for the mistake by David, Bucs win. Ya’ll need to chill, this team is gonna be good and Shiano is going nowhere.
September 9th, 2013 at 8:19 pm
I like the Big Dog. He can be over the top at times but he speaks his mind. I love when he engages in radio combat with callers too. I don’t always agree with him but it’s his show and he has a lot of tenure. I know I couldn’t get on the radio and run my mouth for 3 hours each day, so I respect that. Not physically demanding but I’d rather swing a hammer 10 hrs a day than do what he and Joe do.

This sux can’t post crap
September 9th, 2013 at 8:27 pm
I unfortunately agree with Dumig on this. Shiano was a decent college coach out of the big east which sucks. Can he survive long enough to get over his nfl learning curve only time will tell.
September 9th, 2013 at 8:33 pm
Freeman blows. Joe loves this worthless QB. I’d rather have Geno.
September 9th, 2013 at 8:52 pm
the heck with Glennon> He aint nothing lets trad for kirk cousins or draft bridgewater or another gd qb Glennon wasn’t nothing in college everyone wants him to take over to do what be lousy. Freeman going to jags or Vikings better oline and complete wr core tampa playbook stinks

I find Duemig to be a joke. He’s contrarian to draw listeners. Never take him serious. It’s a wonder how he’s been able to draw such a huge share of the market and remain on top as far as ratings are concerned.

I agree ed freeman needs to be mobile

Better watch out Joe, if you don’t start censoring he anti-Duemig posts, he’ll kick you off his radio show! There is enough blame to go around for yesterday. Coaching, offensive line, tight end, QB let’s not zero in on one! I’m taking it a week at a time, hopefully they get it sorted out soon, for the sake of everyone!

JBF says Duemig’s take is significant. He’s got a top-rated show. Team Glazer said when it fired Chucky that fan opinion weighed heavily in that surprise move.
How did Deumig’s take on Raheem Morris work out?
BTW, what the heck is a spit-list? Is Duemig holding a grudge? What’s his agenda? Why didn’t Duemig complain last year when the team lost five in a row? Why didn’t Duemig criticize the coaching staff about the preseason?

Washington Bucskins getting ate up by the Eggles. Chip Kelly looking pretty good so far.
Slash on AXStv is better though

Yeah.. Freeman did seem to have the most success when he was mobile and took off if no one was open. Since he has become well, rather statuesque, his numbers have suffered.
Iffy on the Big Dog’s comments. Think it is too soon to pull the plug. If he continues to lose ugly or loses the locker room as was rumored not too long ago, he’s finished. It won’t take many games like yesterday for that to happen.

I think Steve Duemig is a good evaluator of Pro sports in general. Yes, he does work in sports entertainment (key work right there) talk radio and does try to rattle the cage. He does it when its needed and fairly most of the time from my perspective. I like tough love and Schiano deserved a little from someone with a mic with not being ready for the “noise”. Did they forget its NY?? They were embarrassed by a really bad Jets team that talent wise is not even comparable. They really need to regroup and come out gang busters and spank New Orleans and get this thing on track or it could be a really long season. I am looking forward to it. I think NICKS is back this week; grass field for that toe and Home game. Go Bucs.
Enjoy the Magic BUC BUS Ride…its fantastic if you enjoy heart palpitations. 🙂

Not any more they aren’t. They’ve actually made it a game.
September 9th, 2013 at 11:06 pm
I love Duemigs show! He is so intense and passionte about Tampa sports!
September 10th, 2013 at 12:07 am
Bucs made it a game too but we all know how that ended. I’m hangin though. If we beat New Orleans I’ll believe this was a fluke of sorts. Defense is good but Brees is the best and if the offense stays home next week it could get ugly. 15 games left and giving up easy games makes the hard ones harder. Saints and Pats is a tall tall order.

lol Bunch of clowns, Freeman really is untouchable ahahahaha
September 10th, 2013 at 1:05 am
If only Schiano could give Freeman a tit to suck on, do Sully’s job, and hold the offenses hand all 60 minutes…
Damn you Schiano!!!!
September 10th, 2013 at 1:17 am
Big Dog has a point here I have never seen anything like that in a nfl ever game we all I know that the offense needed more work in the preseason and when Schiano was at Rutgers they didn’t win anything but if Schiano is all toes on the line how do u have 13 penalties and we have to stop blaming everything on Josh he puts the bucs in position to win and the defense fails him he isn’t perfect but come on bucs fans

I swear this town has the WORST talk radio is entire nation. One game and some fat blowhard is calling for his head…PLEASE.
Duemig’s schtick got old years ago and he brings zero knowledge to the radio…with the exception of how to be a gambler.
Shiano did a poor job of getting this team ready for week 1…lets see what happens Sunday at RayJay.
Fans need to realize, you are never as good or as bad as your last game…keep an even keel Bucs fans…Please.
Edited for hate speech. –Joe

Please. Duemig has great insight and tells it how it is. And yes sports talk radio in general is often “one sided” as it is one mans opinion in this case. More often than not Duemig’s insight is spot on.
